Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	testDataPoint() Tests that two DataPoint objects initialized differently but with the same data are equal.
void	testForecast() Creates a simple data set where the dependent value is exactly the same as the independent value, then tests the chosen forecast model on five further values in the series.
void	testUnknownVariableInObservation() Tests that an IllegalArgumentException is thrown if an attempt is made to retrieve the value of an unknown independent variable.

Method Detail

testDataPoint

public void testDataPoint()

Tests that two DataPoint objects initialized differently but with the same data are equal.

testUnknownVariableInObservation

public void testUnknownVariableInObservation()

Tests that an IllegalArgumentException is thrown if an attempt is made to retrieve the value of an unknown independent variable.

testForecast

public void testForecast()

Creates a simple data set where the dependent value is exactly the same as the independent value, then tests the chosen forecast model on five further values in the series. A regression model should give accurate results for this series, whereas a moving average would always lag the value (so not be as appropriate).
